Abrasion performance reaches 33 mg (requirement: ≤ 80 mg), indicating excellent wear resistance. Under rolling load testing, the system shows an indentation of only 0.30 mm (requirement: ≤ 0.50 mm) with no visible damage observed, supporting dependable performance under repetitive foot traffic and equipment movement.
Experience competition-grade playability with a 94% vertical ball rebound (requirement: ≥ 93%), delivering consistent and predictable ball response for high-level play. In addition, the flooring achieves a slip resistance value of 95 (requirement: 80–110), providing stable traction to help athletes maintain control during quick starts, stops, and direction changes.
Enhancing both functionality and aesthetics, the surface features a refined low-gloss appearance with 27% gloss at 85° (recommended: ≤ 45%). This lower-gloss finish supports reduced glare and improved visual comfort under typical indoor lighting, while delivering a clean, modern court look.
